FAQ
Common questions
What is CANON?+
A cross-category taste identity platform — a permanent record of who you are through what you love. Curate definitive lists across 25 categories, get AI Taste DNA insights, and connect with people who share your taste.
Is it free?+
Core CANON is free forever — add favorites, build your profile, share. CANON Pro ($5/month) unlocks the full AI layer: Taste DNA history, deep evolution arc, and priority catalog search.
How is it different from Letterboxd or Goodreads?+
Both are single-category trackers. CANON spans 25 categories and builds a cross-category identity portrait — the patterns that emerge when your love of Villeneuve films and Murakami novels and ambient music are read together.
Can I import my existing lists?+
Yes — Letterboxd CSV, Goodreads CSV, Spotify OAuth, or generic CSV for anything else. Your import maps to the catalog automatically.
What is Bridge Walker?+
A tiered achievement for curators who claim items across multiple categories. Bronze (◇ 5+), Silver (◈ 10+), Gold (◎ 20+). Your personal Bridge Walker Atlas maps every cross-category bridge you've built.
